- Stats in brief: 45-20-00032025008Description: Has Canada become a sedentary nation? Health data have never been more accessible. We have smart watches to count our steps, notifications about our screen times and apps to track our daily diets. Despite the futuristic tech, researchers are growing concerned. And they’re especially concerned about young Canadians. Today we sat down with Rachel Colley, a senior health researcher at StatCan for a deep dive into Canada’s obesity, physical activity and screen time trends. And the new data from the Canadian Health Measures survey may surprise you.Release date: 2025-11-21
- Stats in brief: 11-627-M2025054Description: This infographic highlights breast cancer statistics from the Canadian Cancer Registry (CCR). Breast cancer incidence is presented, as well as survival rates for women in Canada.Release date: 2025-10-29
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202501000002Description: Globally, cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers, yet it is largely preventable. Switching methods for primary screening from cytology testing, via Pap test, to human papillomavirus (HPV) testing is a component of that prevention. OncoSim-Cervix, a Canadian cervical cancer microsimulation model, assesses the long-term effects of HPV vaccination and screening interventions. This study projects the impact of differing roll-out strategies for HPV primary testing for cervical cancer screening in Canada.Release date: 2025-10-15
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202500900001Description: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a clustering of multiple risk factors, including abdominal obesity (or high waist circumference), elevated triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high fasting blood glucose, and high blood pressure. MetS is an important contributor to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Research indicates that MetS doubles the risk of cardiovascular disease and increases the risk of diabetes fivefold. Using the most recent nationally representative data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey, this study provides an updated prevalence of MetS and its components among Canadian adults aged 18 to 79 years by age group and sex.Release date: 2025-09-17
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202500900002Description: To better understand the interplay between adiposity and metabolic health, joint phenotypes have been used to categorize people as being metabolically healthy or metabolically unhealthy while having a body mass index indicative of obesity, overweight, or normal weight. This study examines the prevalence of these phenotypes in adults, the factors associated with them, and their relationship with adverse health outcomes.Release date: 2025-09-17
- Articles and reports: 82-625-X202500100002Description: This fact sheet provides an overview of proportions of Canadians who have undergone tests commonly used for early detection of colorectal, cervical and breast cancer among people living in the ten provinces. It also examines differences by various groups, such as by sex, age, province, area type, racialized group, immigrant status, Indigenous group and disability status.Release date: 2025-08-06
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202500600001Description: The OncoSim-Breast model, developed by the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer and Statistics Canada, represents breast cancer-related events in the Canadian female population. This study aims to compare OncoSim-Breast microsimulation modelling results with recent results from the United States’ National Cancer Institute’s Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) breast cancer models. The primary focus is on the impact of extending breast cancer screening to women aged 40 to 49.Release date: 2025-06-18
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202500300001Description: Multimorbidity is the co-occurrence of two or more chronic diseases, and is a significant challenge for health care systems worldwide. There are limited data, particularly in a Canadian context, on multimorbidity prevalence and incidence. This study analyzed trends in the prevalence and incidence of multimorbidity and complex multimorbidity (five or more conditions) by sex, age, and neighbourhood income quintile in British Columbia. This study also identified the most prevalent disease combinations.Release date: 2025-03-19
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202500200002Description: The prevalence of Canadian adults with obesity has been steadily increasing over the past four decades. Nine percent of Canadian adults had obesity in 1981, 27.2% had obesity in 2018 and the most recent estimates from 2022 indicate that 30% of Canadian adults have obesity. The purpose of this study is to describe the obesity change pattern among Canadian adults aged 28 to 79 years and to examine associations between obesity history and health outcomes.Release date: 2025-02-19
